Trip description
From the alpine guest house & Rifugio Pederü up to the high plateau
We start the hike into the legendary realm of the Fanes at the car park of the alpine guesthouse Pederü.. We follow the gravel road, which is closed for traffic, from the car park Pederü in the direction of Rifugio Fanes.Directly behind Pederü, there is a steep ascent with up to 25% gradient in serpentines. The gravel here is well stuck and fine at the beginning, but then becomes coarser and slightly washed out towards the end. Sometimes it is necessary to drive backwards if the grip of the traction device is not sufficient. In between, we can see from a distance the hiking trail No. 7, which will also cross our path again and again.
Over the plateau to the Rifugio Fanes
On the plateau, the wide gravel path with a gradient of only up to 5% leads leisurely over the high plateau and you can enjoy the surrounding mountain world. After about 1.5 km, the road climbs again, this time first with 10%, then slowly getting steeper with up to 20%. The flooring becomes somewhat coarser here due to scree avalanches on the side of the way, so reversing may be necessary as the grip of the traction device might be dwindling away. After about 1 km the terrain becomes flattered again and the path more like a wide hiking trail. With a maximum gradient of 10%, it passes the Ücia Pines Fanes and the Ücia dles Munatgnoles (Ücia is the Ladin Language). At the junction, we can turn left toward Rifugio Fanes and right toward Rifugio Lavarella. The Rifugio Fanes can be reached via a gradient of about 12% and a coarser gravel path with large, smooth stones.

Level of difficulty
Difficult
Explanation
The tour includes gradients of more than 20% some sections may have to be driven backwards, depending on the strength and grip of the traction device, which should be four-wheeled if possible. Likewise, coarse gravel makes the floor difficult to drive on, and an accompanying person is necessary for occasional pushing.
Resting facilities
Alpine Gueshouse Pederü, Rifugio Fanes, Rifugio Lavarella
Tested:
- Guesthouse Pederü (1,548 m): The guest house is accessible on the ground floor, and the terrace can also be used.
- Rifugio Fanes (2,060 m): The terrace and also the guest room can only be reached by stairs. The steps are relatively deep, so that a manual wheelchair can be pulled up with the help of an accompanying person.
Accessible toilet
In the guest house Pederü there is a wheelchair-accessible toilet. The keys can be obtained from the hosts.
